Israeli media outlets have expressed fears regarding an interim nuclear agreement between Iran and the West.

The political affairs correspondent of the Kan channel claimed that the Iranian Foreign Minister said that dialogue is ongoing between Tehran and the West is ongoing adding that Israel is afraid of a possible nuclear deal.

The Israeli correspondent said the occupation worries that the United States partially lifts the sanctions which in practice would allow Iran to lift the economic burden off Iran allowing it to flourish.

He further stressed that the speculated deal would be different than the old deal established between Iran and the West which was later halted by the Trump administration, but instead, this deal would hold different clauses.

Kan's correspondent added that multiple messages have been exchanged between Biden's administration and Tehran, as the former looks to explore possible pathways to reaching the interim agreement.

According to Israeli media, the US administration is divided on the issue, however, a solution is still a large possibility.

In April, Axios reported that The Biden administration is exploring a stopgap agreement with Iran that would offer the Islamic Republic some sanction relief in exchange for Tehran freezing parts of its nuclear program.

The discussions, which started in January, involve Iran halting its uranium enrichment at 60%, well below the 90% enrichment required of weapons-grade uranium necessary for nuclear weapons, the report said.

Reportedly, Iran currently has over 87 kilograms of 60% enriched uranium in its stockpiles, which, if enriched, would be enough to produce at least one nuclear bomb, the West claims despite Tehran constantly underlining that its nuclear program is peaceful.

The proposed deal is similar to one created by the Obama administration when Iran signed the 2013 Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), colloquially known as the Iran nuclear deal, which included a short-term freeze on some of Iran's nuclear program in exchange for partial sanctions relief, the report said.

Tehran has so far underlined its rejection of the new approach, citing the 2015 agreement that nearly went back into effect in September before Iran backed out in light of Western countries' rejection of the country's demands to cease investigations into nuclear sites, Axios said.
